“But funding for Pennsylvania public education has never been higher. The commonwealth now spends nearly $24,000 per student…. However, the average percentage of students demonstrating proficiency has decreased by 18%” @AndrewLewisPA community.triblive.com/news/…

On @Fox43: "it really is incumbent on controlling that spending number, protecting our emergency reserves and preventing tax increases. ..If it raises taxes or takes from the rainy day fund, that would be a nonstarter, and everyone should vote against." buff.ly/yT3vqLI

National donors on the left have made state legislatures, courts, and statewide offices a top priority. Matt Brouillette's new book argues that conservative donors are still slow to recognize this shift, and the window to catch up is closing. spn.org/matt-brouillette-new…

Families shouldn't spend their summer wondering if their child’s educational future will disappear before the next school year begins. @GovernorShapiro and lawmakers must come together to EXPAND scholarships in the state budget, not cruelly cut them.

"Gov. Shapiro has proposed spending more than $6 billion beyond available revenue. The math doesn't lie: that deficit would ultimately require sales or income tax hikes totaling more than $2,100 per Pennsylvania family—skill games’ revenue or not.” buff.ly/l4iKItz

So what’s happening here is that student enrollment is in decline and the unions want the legislature to limit any competition from private schools for those students because it will impact their bottom line. Fewer public school students, fewer teachers needed, fewer forced dues paying members of the teacher union. This is absolutely not about classroom standards or students or education at all. It’s about the adults who lead the public teacher union and have the ear of legislators. And legislators who don’t care about the educational opportunities for families.

Legislation in the PA House - HB 2632 - would cut $100 million from Pennsylvania's K-12 scholarship organizations, resulting in 30,000 current private school students losing scholarships.
